Before the Date…
A high seas adventure isn’t only for the film and far away actors it lives and breaths right here on the “shores” of Los Angeles. Starting where haunted cups of grog are shared with your crew before boarding a steel ship to a far away land. When you arrive there will be riches and wenches before a battle for the ages takes you for the ultimate test. Savvy?
So call all your scalawags and prepare them for a journey of epic proportions!
St0p #1: 3:30 – 4:30pm
HAUNTED PRE-GAME
What to Know
With more than 4 people it may be tough to grab a spot at the bar as it is small. If you have a big group call ahead to reserve a table.
This restaurant is “haunted” by a ghost called La Consuela. She is frequented as being seen in the balcony overlooking the main room. Go have a look.
Get the margarita, it’s delicious. That is all.
St0p #2: 4:40 – 5:30pm
RIDE YOUR STEEL SHIP
What to Know
You are going to be taking the 4:40pm train to Buena Park. To save time and energy download the Metrolink App to purchase your tickets.
If you bring a road soda beware as there will be a police officer with the train conductor checking tickets at the beginning.
Pay attention to the stops and be ready to exit when the train arrives at Buena Park. You’ll have less than a minute to get off the train.
St0p #3: 5:45 – 7:15pm
DRINK SOME GROG
What to Know
Rock & Brews was founded by Dave Furano in 2010. A great story, he was first a promoter of rock shows, then started selling t-shirts at a venue before making a deal to sell the shirts at this new cafe called Hard Rock. If you’ve ever seen one of those, it’s because of this guy.
You don’t need to wait for a table as you can go straight to the bar or the table tops next to it or if the weather is nice head outside to the patio full of bar games.
If you’re in need of a snack the pizza hits the spot.
Make sure you leave for stop #4 by 7:15pm.
St0p #4: Adventure
JOIN THE BATTLE
What to Know
Bringing a group of 10+ friends is ideal. You will not only get discounted tickets at $38 but also a guaranteed front row seat.
The show starts at 8pm but plan to arrive by 7:30pm. This will allow you to get the tickets, seats, and take as many photo ops as possible.
For $40 you can get a hollowed out leg resembling the one from A Christmas Story filled with anything you want. Anything. You. Want.
Make sure you raise your hand when they ask for volunteer, as you’re a big group they will inevitably pick one of you to partake in the action.
Bonus: If the plunder must continue sail over to the Tomkat Lounge for cheap grog and karaoke.
